Question

what change, if any, should be made in sentence 9?
(9) even though the project was challenging, the students felt proud of their contribution.
○ change \the students\ to \they\
○ no change needed
○ change \their\ to \our\
○ change \the project\ to \it\

Explanation:

We analyze each option:

• Changing "the students" to "they" would make the sentence less clear as "they" would be a pronoun without a clear antecedent in this context (though "the students" is the antecedent, rephrasing here isn't necessary and may cause confusion).
• Changing "their" to "our" is incorrect because the subject is "the students" (third - person plural), not first - person plural "we/our".
• Changing "the project" to "it" is unnecessary as "the project" is clear in the sentence.
• The original sentence is grammatically correct and the meaning is clear, so no change is needed.

Answer:

B. No change needed
